We specialise in architectural models, but we also create industrial models, exhibition models, display models, fibreglass models, and topographical models. We even offer a laser cutting and laser engraving service.

Regardless of your requirements, our expert team of model makers can help. From a simple concept model to a fully detailed presentation model, from a giant snowball to a purple dragon, we can turn two-dimensional ideas into three-dimensional reality. We can even add sound, light and movement to give your project that extra dimension.

The Modelmakers team are used to dealing with unusual requests. If you need something built that's a bit out of the ordinary, we'll find a way to do it. Our broad knowledge of model making techniques – together with our outstanding technical skill – means that we can handle just about any brief you give us. We love a challenge here at Modelmakers!
Don’t be afraid to get in touch – we are always happy to advise! For many of our customers, commissioning a model is a new experience and the first thing they need is basic information about the model making process. Even if you’re at the very earliest stages of considering a model, we’ll be happy to give you straightforward, jargon-free advice about the options most suited to your project (as well as a rough idea of what they will cost). Contact us now or call 029 2048 6497 for a quick, informal chat.

Model Making: Frequently Asked Questions
As a quick guide to our model making service, we’ve put together a Frequently Asked Questions page. Below, you’ll find an abbreviated selection of some of the questions we’ve answered there.

How much does a model cost?
There is no definitive answer to this question – every model is a unique project, and our prices range from less than £100 to many thousands of pounds.

I’m not based in South Wales. Is that a problem?
Not at all. We manufacture models for clients all over Britain and beyond, keeping in touch via email and/or telephone and sending regular photographs and progress updates.

How long will my model take to build?
Just as there is no fixed price structure for a model, nor is there a standard construction time. Some simple concepts take just a few days, while more complex projects can take as much as 5-6 weeks.

What information do you need to provide a quotation?
To provide a fixed price quotation for your model, we ideally need a fairly comprehensive set of drawings. Still, we appreciate that this isn’t always possible, so we aim to be as flexible as we can.
